"Join the Army" is the second album by Suicidal Tendencies and also their first album since the self-titled debut in 4 years. This album was released in 1987. One of the well known albums that had the crossover genre of punk and metal known as thrash. Mike Muir used different vocal ranges compared to the self-titled album (sometimes sounding similar to Lemmy from Motörhead). Grant Estes was replaced by Rocky George, who, in addition to playing more complex guitar solos than Estes did, influenced the change of the bands genre into more of thrash. Amery Smith was replaced by R.J. Herrera, who used the particularly metal drum feature of double bass. It was produced by Lester Claypool (not to be confused with Les Claypool of the band Primus).
